My mother had to file something for her pension, and she had to wake up very early to get to the Pension Office before it became crowded. She sent me a photo of herself sitting in one of those seats, and I was like, ‘Oh my! I hate those seats!’ They remind me of all the hours I spent sitting in them while waiting for government staff to process my papers, or for bank tellers to call my name, or for airline staff to finally announce that my flight was delayed by three hours. Those seats don’t give me any happy memories at all. Lol Anyway, thank God someone noticed that my mom is a senior citizen and she was ushered inside the office promptly.   How about you there? Do you have any stories for these seats?

Yes, we have seats like that here. Usually they are available in some public places such as airports and hospitals.

yes,when we need a seat,it is really important,just like standing on a crowded bus,then a seat can delight us and relieve tireness.Even two persons fight for a seat,it's possible

I have seen those seats even here, since Covid started, the one in the middle is "banned" to keep people distant.

@sol_cee In the airplane the middle sit is horrible. I am well, it is still too warm here for the season, from next Tuesday it should be cooler.

I hate them even more in a dentist's waiting area. But then I have enjoyed them at other times when I have used the waiting time to be on myLot

I have not seen those seats anywhere before. They do not look like they would be comfortable.

I hadn't thought about it before but I can now relate to the bad vibes you get when you see these seats. They certainly seem to say you're in for a wait.

To the best of my knowledge, we do not have them here, but we have uncomfortable seating in many of the same places you mentioned.
